Someday,
When You get the R-bridge down,let me know how it works,if it works as per Mathew's tabs.It is really easy to "finger out",but I just cannot get it to sound right. You mentioned a few of my favorite 12's,The Wreck,EMR,and one You did'nt mention,SoT. Just was wondering if Your adding any lead with yer strumming tunes?On the Wreck,Terry's lead is a bit tough with all the bends,at least for me,so I do a version just using the E and B strings,and a little sliding, on the 12.It ain't Terry's Gretch,but it does get the point across if your workin it solo.Let me know if Your interested in the easy tabs for the Wreck,and I'll find a way to get them to You.(hey Hon,can You come here for a minute..)

Bill,
Could You hook me up with the tabs for Terrys's lead in "Baby Step Back"?I've been tryin to work this out,off and on,for a couple years.Believe me,I need the tabs....
What is the "Chat"?. Is it Gord stuff or more oriented for you masters of the strings?{don't take that wrong,That's a compliment}
